Down StageLeft
(A part of StageLeft Theatre)
The Downstage Left Program was
created in 1995 to develop new theatrical works and to create novel, quality
performance experiences that further Stage Left's mission:
to produce plays that raise the level of debate on political and social
issues. By introducing new artists and ideas into our company we
hope also to challenge the audience's (and our own) notions of how theatre
can be created. Our goal with this project is to provide an environment
where inspirations can be investigated without the pressure of a full
production.
